Kanazawa is full of blooming sakura 🌸🌸🌸 We are ready. Welcome to #RoboSoft26! robosoft2026.org

🌸心臓アブレーション治療に用いられるバルーンカテーテルに、視覚ベースの触覚センシングを搭載することに初めて成功しました。 TORAY （株）との実りある共同研究の成果です。 📜論文: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/11230…

Teleoperation was pioneered ~1950 to remotely handle radioactive material. When we use it today to collect robot trajectories for BC, it is still clumsy. Surely, there is a better way! (Hint: human video, RL in sim).youtube.com/watch?v=Iihxza…

Can't agree more. Many system, hardware-wise papers have been presented at RSS, disseminating great benchmarks for the community. Such a great privilege to serve for @RoboticsSciSys !

ご卒業おめでとうございました！🌸🌸🌸 🎓修士：２名・就職先：オムロン、インフィニオン 🎓博士：３名・就職先：学振・PD、JAIST・特任助教、金沢学院大学・助教

@yangrobotics many thanks Yang, for your great support. Let's keep this pace!

Check out our work on soft drone featured in Science Robotics Editors’ Choice!

Our RA-L paper, in collaboration with Prof. Loianno’s @loiannog group, was selected as an Editors’ Choice in Science Robotics: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… A step forward for Embodied Intelligence in quadrotors: how physical design and control can work to enhance resilience/safety.

Ho研のOB @quanluu96 の最新な成果。

At the RI seminar at CMU yesterday, I presented a 3 level analysis of robot skills & discussed the pros and cons of teleoperation, simulation, and learning from videos, before presenting our research. Enjoy! youtube.com/watch?v=ry8iti…

📢ソフトロボティクス技術を活かした触覚提示装置の特許が承認された。 Our patent on a soft haptic device has been granted.

Original UMI has an "obvious" problem 🧐: while the human feels haptic feedback during data collection, the robot policy doesn't! Adding a $5,000, fragile, and bulky force sensor really defeats its "portable & scalable" goal Luckily, we have @_Hojung_Choi and CoinFT! Check out UMI-FT -- achieving finger-level force sensing and compliance control with two coin-sized F/T sensors 👇

@hakuturu583 その通り！ROSEを回すためですね

dynamixelの制御ボード？っぽいものが見えてる👀

Make insertion task easier with ROSE soft gripper (no force feedback, no training yet) #physical_intelligence

あけましておめでとうございます！ 今年もよろしくおねがいします。

Merry Christmas from Ho Lab! Wishing you a warm and cozy holiday season.

@IlirAliu_ Jamming-based gripper?

Gripper-cushion grips it all❗ Handles sheet metal, liquid tanks, nonwovens, and pipes: Most gripper are made to pick or grab just one type of object… often tool changing is the fastest and most efficient option. FORMHAND Automation GmbH gripper pads are revolutionizing material handling in manufacturing. ✅ Versatile: Capable of gripping diverse materials from sheet metal to pipes. ✅ Simplified Handling: Reduces the complexity of robotic programming. ✅ Self-Calibrating: Utilizes gravity for error-resistant gripping. ✅ No Special Design Needed: Eliminates the need for precise gripping points on components.
